Chapter 49 - People are Destined to Die, but It Can't be a Social Death
"Level 4 Fortress Newbie Duel?" Gan Yan pondered, trying to shift his thoughts.
This was indeed a good way to understand the era.
The skill level of newbies in a duel can reflect some information about the times.
Driven by curiosity, he clicked on the video. The blue side took the first turn.
Turn 1.
"A Level 4 Fortress Newbie can now use Extraordinary Cards and Tuners, and even perform Synchro Summon?"
Turn 2.
"Accelerated Synchro!?"
"An Epic Card!?"
"She got two more!?"
Turn 3.
"A red halo..."
"F*ck, it's Avramax!"
Gan Yan's mind went blank, and he was at a loss for words.
Shortly after the successful summoning of
Gan Yan quickly scrolled down, seeing the top few hottest comments:
"Eh, just so-so. Guess that's to be expected from our Level 4 Fortress newbies."
"The newbies of our Level 4 Fortress do still have a lot of room for improvement."
"Please let me apologize for them, they're still newbies of our Level 4 Fortress and their Deck isn't complete yet."
After the comments, many people with Level 4 Fortress symbol also commented, saying that it was indeed average. Some people even said that their pet cats were more well-equipped with Epic Cards. Every time they commented, they especially emphasized the phrase "our Level 4 Fortress".
"What the f*ck..." Gan Yan was dumbfounded.
"That was just average?"
He glanced at the video date.
"1048, May 28th..."
"Less than 200 years have passed..."
"Epic Cards are now everywhere, and Historic Cards aren't worth much?"
Gan Yan turned to look at
Then, with one person and one beast cautiously scanning their surroundings, they carefully stepped forward, fearing that an "ordinary" person might suddenly appear.
New Spirit Calendar Year 1048, the early morning of May 28th.
Similar things happened around the world.
Many restless
They put away their grand ambitions of
The new generation is too terrifying; it seems a bit difficult to annihilate them.
The ten billion people never would have expected that Biantana would usher in a precious and short-lived peace because of this duel.
.........…
May 28th, 9am.
After a heavy rain, the sunlight shining in from the window felt just right.
Luo Bai slowly opened his eyes, rubbed them, yawned, and turned over, wrapping his limbs tightly around the
"Aba aba..."
He smacked his lips, pulled the curtains closed, and continued to sleep.
D*mn the outside world, he's going to sleep until the world ends.
No work, no classes, no store to open.
If he doesn't sleep until lunchtime, he'd be letting this new life down.
With such thoughts in mind, another three hours passed.
"Fuahh——–"
Luo Bai yawned widely, finally feeling well-rested and a bit hungry.
Out of habit, he pressed the power button on the computer as he got up.
He drew back the curtains, stretched, twisted his neck, and loosened his muscles.
[Ding!]
[Tabletop Program Launched]
As soon as he turns on his computer, the installed Tabletop Program will start automatically.
Three pages popped up, along with an AI dialogue box in the lower left corner.
The Personal Panel Interface is still the same.
On the Staff and Branch Interface, the monitor showed Melonica on the first floor, eating and reading exam questions.
Luo Bai casually glanced at the second page.
There, he saw the conspicuous "99+" friend request in the upper right corner of the screen.
"Hmm? Why are there so many friend requests?"
Luo Bai, puzzled, sat down in front of the computer and started scrolling down. The requests kept coming, endless as he scrolled, with no end in sight to the number of applications.
? ? ?
He couldn't help but frown.
Not knowing any of them, he simply pressed
In less than 10 seconds, the friend request prompt changed to "99+" again.
? ? ?
This time, he was really confused.
"The heck's going on?"
"Did I sleepwalk and save the world last night?"
Even more terrifying was the
Now it has turned into...
"D*mn, this is crazy." Luo Bai's mind went blank.
After waking up, he found he had gained 65 million fans.
Fortunately, duel fans couldn't send private messages or @ him; only friends could do that. Fans could only receive information unidirectionally.
Otherwise, one message per person would drown him.
"What the heck happened..."
Luo Bai muttered and connected to the internet.
Entering his Duelist ID "My Waifu Scheiren" to the search engine, he clicked search to see if something happened regarding his account.
It resulted in tens of thousands of search results, most of which were videos posted during the early morning hours.
The duel from before bed had been made public and had gone viral, attracting an extraordinary number of fans.
There were tens of thousands of fan edits, and even more frightening, there were enthusiastic fans rallying.
A viral parade video.
Hundreds or even thousands of people wrote "My Waifu Scheiren" on fan signs, gathering to hold up these signs in a parade, spreading the word everywhere to show their loyalty.
"Ah——-"
"Ahhhhhh————"
Luo clutched his head, feeling as if his brain was about to explode.
An ID like "My Waifu Scheiren" might be fine for personal use or casual teasing among a few acquaintances, but hearing it being seriously read out openly...
Being paraded on the street with placards...
Displayed like it's a sacred name from the holy texts...
Shouted out loudly by hundreds of people...
The level of embarrassment was enough to send a shiver from his head to his toes.
"Ah——-"
"I will never recognize this ID!" Luo Bai swore secretly.
Even though Luo Bai was feeling like that, the people of Biantana not only found the ID not strange, but were instead feeling very curious and admired the act of using a loved one's name in their nickname.
Millions of people began researching who the girl named "Scheiren" was, forming the
Many internet celebrities even claimed to be "Scheiren" gain a large following and increase their popularity, but they were quickly exposed one by one by the
The
Only those who are so loyal to their Ka are worthy of holding Epic Cards!
"Severely crack down on all the bad women who pretend to be Scheiren!"
Using this as their slogan,
Within just a few hours, the video had garnered tens of millions of views and hundreds of thousands of likes.
"Ah——-"
"Stop shouting!"
Luo Bai's brain felt numb, his face twisted in a grimace, on the brink of losing his mind.
The ID even sparked a trend, leading to the emergence of similar names like "My Waifu Snowdrop", "My Waifu Ze Amin", "My Waifu Meluseek"...
In Biantana, such a thing is romantic.
But for a pure-hearted Earthling like him, it's too early for him to face a situation like this.
People certainly may be destined to die.
However, it can't be a social death!
"Hiss..." Luo Bai took a deep breath.
"Calm down..."
He frantically gave himself psychological hints, fearing that he would lose control and go on a rampage.
"Let's go downstairs and have a meal first."
"Yes, given the situation, let's focus on eating first."
Trying his best to smile, Luo Bai dressed up decently and went down to the dining area on the first floor.
Just when he reached the stairs, the sound of explosive discussion hit him.
"Whoa, what a cool Epic Card!"
"Ahh, if I had known that would happen, I wouldn't have slept early and missed the live broadcast."
" "My Waifu Scheiren", such a handsome ID, I'll follow him!"
"Not bowing his head in the face of three giant dragons, he's so cool!"
"Hey, do you think this Scheiren is a real person or a Ka?"
"It must be a Ka, women will only affect the speed of our draws!"
"But in the
"What a romantic ID~~ Hnghh~~ I don't know who the duelist is, but he must be a melancholic handsome guy!" A nymphomaniac's voice was particularly loud.
Luo Bai couldn't help but turn red, his gaze wandering, feeling extremely uneasy, with his steps faltering in place.
